The Anti-Manichaeist

I found out via Josh Marshall that Eschaton has discovered that DeLay has lied. DeLay claimed he was not invited to attend the trial that indicted him when he was invited to testify under oath and was wisely counseled by his lawyers not to attend. Now, why would lawyers counsel DeLay not to testify unless that would have made him admit to doing wrong or perjured himself?

This needs to be taken up and run with. All those people who pressed for Clinton to be impeached for lying about his affair with Monica should now for consistency sake also press for DeLay to resign. It’d probably be for the best for the Republican Party. Blunt is more than capable of using K Street funds to enforce discipline in the party in the House.
